As he boyfriend, MJ Johnson, told on an Instagram post, he bought her that dress in the Fashion Nova virtual store for only 50 dollars, and then with the help of his aunt, they added the blue flowers to the edge of the skirt to turn it into a long dress.

The fabulous dress caught her attention due to the sequined patterns she has on the top, however as it was a short dress it was not appropriate for a formal party such as high school graduation. Read more on our Twitter account @amomama_usa

But thanks to the ingenuity and talent of both his aunt and Castillo, they managed to turn the piece into a sensational outfit. Johnson did not stay behind and dressed for the occasion a suit of the same color as the flowers of the dress.
